What's Your Obsession

Some of Erick Sosa’s finest sculpting to date, here are the promo shots for Kotobukiya’s Amazing Spider-Man statue. Having seen it in person, it’s just as impressive as the shots.

Kotobukiya really nailed this one of the park, there’s such raw emotion in this sculpt. Here’s their Dark Knight Returns Batman vs Joker statue!

Starting off with the DC Direct Dark Knight Rises 1:12 scale line, here are the final versions of Batman, Bane, and Catwoman. MSRP of $79.99 each. Other announcements include the New 52 Cyborg bust ($69.99), the previously announced Saint Walker Blue Lantern statue ($124.99), and the Darwyn Cooke Black and White Batman ($89.99). The most [...]

I’m loving the alternate laughing face on Bandai’s Figuarts Zero Shirahoshi figure. While people used to complain about the paint on some of the older Figuarts figures, from what I’ve been seeing lately, they’ve improved a pretty decent amount. While I haven’t seen an announced price yet, it’ll no doubt be significantly cheaper than the [...]

Orchid Seed has been releasing their Sonico statues on a regular basis, mostly with good success. Nurse Sonico is a bit of a switch because unlike some of their other ones, she’s fully clothed at first. However, she does have cast-offable clothing (NSFW), which you can check out at the full gallery. Available to pre-order [...]

Sideshow Collectibles just put up their Babydoll (from Sucker Punch) Premium Format gallery and I gotta say, I’m impressed. As far as action poses go it’s really well done, great base, this looks to be a solid alternative to the Gentle Giant statue. The exclusive will come with a switch-out hand and it’ll be $349.99.

Another busy week means another classic unpublished review! It’s a good thing I had these queued up for particularly busy times. In this case, I was doing something neat with Marvel that you’ll get to see in a few weeks. Time to check out the Bowen Designs Spider-Man museum pose statue. This was also released [...]

Seems Kotobukiya updated their Black Widow Bishoujo’s hair due to customer feedback. I wish the face had been altered a little as well but hey, this is a nice improvement!

I’ve compiled some information about the PrototypeZ Studio/Erick Sosa Street Fighter statues since they’ve been giving some more details lately and I’m sure the model buildings on this site will be pretty jacked about it! I’m excited as well, though I’m still improving my painting skills. – the initial round of releases will be Ryu [...]

Not as Sideshow so I can’t use flexpay? NOOOOOOOO. That said, getting 3A’s Metal Gear Rex at $490 shipped, worldwide, is a ridiculously good deal considering the size of it. A newsletter is coming next week with some more updates, perhaps they’ll allow Sideshow to sell it or a color variant. Any 3AA members will [...]
